Does anyone have scratches, and how did you mount them? would center mounting them be a good idea?

Hey Alpacaa, Matt, Rossi TM here.
Most of the team (Parker White, Chris Logan, Xavier Bertoni to name a few) mount all of our S-Series skis are either dead center, as you ask, or at 1 cm behind center for just a little more tip pressure while skiing switch. at 1 cm behind dead center most of the crew feel skis ski the best, dead even swing weight and a little more tip to balance on.

if you mount them back you will get some more all mountain( crud and pow) ability, but if you do groomers and park, mounting them at center will make skis way more funner and you wont sacrafice carving

Center. Such fun skis, and you could even go 181. They are really light and easy to ski.
